Offseason FA!!

Recommended Posts

I wanted Tee but quickly realized it's not really a option. So I pivoted. Mooney and Gabe Davis are plan B. 

Two second tier guys can = one 1st tier right?  We need to completely revamp the WR room.  Another FA I hope we explore is adding a veteran OL guy. Jonah Williams could be our guy. Tee needing a new contract could help us get Jonah.   I don't know what is gonna happen with Burns.  I have doubts the FO even knows.  Heck the GM and HC might change. So... Backup plan if Burns  moves.  Two second tier pass rushers = one 1st tier pass rusher right?  

Lastly the guys who have earned a new contract need to stay.  Luvu is a priority. A few of the Corners filling in for glass horn have also earned a contract. Franklin and Hill are gamers.  Our off season plan should be very "money ball" no overpaying and adding multiple guys in positions of need.

Here we go..

So you can understand..

The answer isn’t in this locker room.. And we aren’t getting CJ Stroud nor are we cutting BY.. So the only option is giving BY the best chance for success and it isn’t going to happen by sitting here and waiting on somebody to step up or Dreaming about drafting CJ..

Thaaaank youuuuu...

Who are you paying??

JMO Id grab 2 of these guys and a FA TE..

FA money would be spent on Offense… Draft defense..

Realistically 

1. Evan’s is older and looking for a big final pay day..  We can overpay and get him..

2. Whoever doesn’t get paid n Cincy between (Boyd and Higgins) .. It depends on how Cincy wants to build their team .. JMO Higgins wants to be paid and treated like a number 1 and Cincy already has 1 … Will they put that much money in 1 position is the question…

3. Mooney and Gabe are possibly because they look like they have fell out of favor with Their teams… They aren’t number 1’s but we have to do something…

4. Everybody else has a better chance at being retained..

Keep in mind a lot of those guys will never make it to free agency.

We drool over free agent classes on an annual basis only to watch a pretty good number of them get re-signed.

This. 

First, their teams must not find a way to not extend them. 

Second, they must not get Franchise Tagged by their team.

Third, then we can negotiate with them. We have middle of the pack cap space... we can't just throw a bag at two guys on offense to get instant upgrades.

Fourth, even if we do WANT to throw them an overpay they still have to want to come here. They can likely field a competitive offer elsewhere.

Fifth, if we fire our coach why are they going to want to sign here with a brand new head coach and a second year QB who hasn't flashed much in year 1?

Like theres a lot of things at play here that likely signal us not getting a top WR from this class.

No you’re missing the point.. Burrows is better then any QB DJ has ever had.. 

Still doesn’t change the fact that DJ had more opportunities.. 

If the target share was similar then you have a point.. But the fact that DJ had way more opportunities to produce no matter who threw was playing QB and Higgins did the same numbers with less opportunities isn’t a glaring issue against Higgins.. It proves the point that he could be just as good as DJ no matter who is throwing him the ball..

 

No, you're still missing the point. But that's ok. Life goes on.

I think we need to address the Offensive line .. like getting a good to LT first , so icky can slide over to his natural position.. then look at WRs..also from what I am seeing on Reichs offensive history which I didn’t really know about.. I thought he was better than that!! He needs to go then Tepper needs to hand over the keys to his coaches!!!

Totally disagree .. The Oline has been bad this year but they need healthy consistency from the players we have and more reps for the younger players.. Maybe even a scheme change to a power run scheme … But number 1 need is get Bryce some weapons..

Depends on situation and lately Wr’s are hitting the market more often then back in the past… Wr’s are switching teams more then any other position and Wr’s are looking more for a big bag then a perfect situation… 

We got to stop with this attitude that we will never get unless this or that happens and start paying the price to compete in this league…

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
    • If BY continues to develop.  XL learns how to catch with his speed. Tet lives up to his hype... THEN Brooks comes back.. dammmmmmmmmmmmmm
